Weather Summary

Weather Underground midday recap for Saturday, February 11, 2012.

Cold air poured into the Plains on Saturday, while snow showers developed in parts of the Northeast. A strong low pressure system that brought heavy rain to the Southern Plains and Southeast has advanced eastward and off the East Coast into the Atlantic Ocean. However, counter-clockwise flow around this system continued to push moisture into the Northeast, Great Lakes, and Ohio River Valley. In addition to cool air over the region, this allowed for snow showers to develop across Michigan and the Ohio River Valley. Snowfall accumulations ranged from 1 to 3 inches in most areas, with up to 5 inches at higher elevations of the Central Appalachians. Coastal regions remained slightly warmer, which maintained light rain showers from southern Maine through Virginia.

Behind this system, a dominant ridge of high pressure continued to build over the Plains. This system started to stretch eastward over the Mississippi Valley. Flow around this system pulled cold air in from central Canada and kept seasonable cool temperatures over the Central US. High temperatures only reached into the 30s in parts of northern Texas, while the Central and Northern Plains saw highs in the teens, with overnight lows in the negative teens.

Out West, cool conditions persisted with areas of wet weather as a trough of low pressure moved over the Pacific Northwest and into the Intermountain West and Great Basin. Rainfall totals and high elevation snow accumulation remained light. A few light rain showers extended into California as moist onshore flow persisted.

Lake Wind Advisory
Mobile & Email Alerts Statement as of 9:02 PM EST on February 11, 2012

... Lake Wind Advisory remains in effect until 5 am EST Sunday for
Lake Moultrie...

* hazards: strong winds and rough waves.

* Winds: northwest 20 to 25 knots with gusts to 35 knots early... diminishing
to less than 20 knots late.

* Waves: building 2 to 4 feet... highest across eastern portions.

* Impacts: the combination of gusty winds and choppy waves will
create hazardous conditions for small boats and personal
watercraft on the lake.

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

Mariners should postpone activities on Lake Moultrie until
conditions improve Sunday morning. Gusty winds and rough waves
could capsize small boats.





Special Statement
Mobile & Email Alerts Statement as of 7:48 PM EST on February 11, 2012

... Fire Danger Statement...

Low fuel moistures are expected to combine with northwest to west
winds 10 to 15 mph with gusts around 20 to 25 mph Sunday and
relative humidities dropping to around 18 percent away from the
immediate coast which will lead to an enhanced risk of fires
getting out of control across southeast South Carolina.

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

Please refer to your local burn permitting authorities on whether
you can burn Sunday. If you do burn... you are advised to use extreme
caution.




415 PM EST Sat Feb 11 2012

... Strong winds expected through the evening...

Northwest winds will reach as high as 24 to 29 mph... with gusts of
34 to 39 mph at times through the evening across southeast South
Carolina and southeast Georgia. These strong winds are just below the
criteria that requires a Wind Advisory.

Winds on some of the taller bridges can be even stronger. This
includes... the Ravenel bridge... the Don Holt bridge... the James b.
Edwards bridge... the Ben Sawyer bridge... the Isle of Palms
connector... the Amos nathaniel Rodgers bridge... the Woods Memorial
bridge and the Talmadge Memorial bridge.

All motorists should use extra caution when traveling... especially
on bridges... overpasses and in exposed areas.

Stay tuned to NOAA Weather Radio all hazards... TV or your local
news source for the latest weather information from the National
Weather Service.







359 PM EST Sat Feb 11 2012

... Bitterly cold weather to impact the area tonight through early Monday...

An Arctic air mass will settle into the area through early
Monday... bringing with it the coldest air since early January. A
hard freeze will occur across the vast majority of southern South
Carolina and southeast Georgia both tonight and Sunday
night... while temperatures on Sunday will be far below normal.

Temperatures tonight will steadily fall through the night as the
colder Arctic air continues to move in on brisk northwest winds.
Temperatures will fall below freezing in most communities by 11 PM
to 1 am... and will bottom out between 20 and 25 Sunday morning.
Even the beaches will be impacted... with shoreline temperatures to
plunge to the upper 20s. When combined with the wind... the wind
chill temperature for late tonight and Sunday morning will be down
as low as 9 to 16 degrees for several hours. It/ll take until 9-11
am Sunday for temperature to reach above the freezing mark... but
with temperatures will struggle to reach no higher than the middle
40s for the afternoon.

As the center of the Arctic high settles closer to the region
Sunday night and Monday morning... temperatures will drop quickly
with sunset. With mostly calm winds and clear skies... we/ll see
temperatures fall below freezing again in most communities by 8 or
9 PM. With plentiful radiational cooling to occur... lowest
temperatures will be down in the upper teens and lower 20s away
from the coast at the start of Monday. The beaches will not be as
cold as tonight... but still down into the lower 30s for overnight
lows.

We have not had much cold weather this winter... and as a reminder
here are a few cold weather preparedness and safety actions...

Try to stay inside as much as possible. If you must be outside...
dress appropriately for the cold weather.

Remember to protect your water pipes to prevent then from bursting.
Cover or insulate those pipes if possible. Let at least one faucet
drip inside your home during each night. Open up the Cabinet doors
underneath all sinks to allow for warmer air to circulate inside.

Do not Forget about your pets. If you can... bring them inside at
night. If this is not possible... make sure they will have plenty
of warmth such as blankets or other coverings to remain warm.
Ensure that they have plenty of unfrozen drinking water.

Check on the elderly and others such as Young children and those
with illnesses that may be more susceptible to very cold
temperatures.

Be extra careful if using electric space heaters to prevent fires
from occurring.

news source for the latest weather information from the National
Weather Service.
